Then we might have some other problems accessing that RAID. When
configured as a large 2620354MB logical drive (no logical drive partitions):

Using 1 logical drive with two partitions mapped to two LUNs (resulting
in da1 and da2 in FreeBSD) works perfectly. 

BTW: I'm actually running a nearly-GENERIC kernel 5.4-RELEASE here, just
with 
        options SMP
        device ccd 

added. Maybe I will need some other options? What about GEOM? 

But for me it smells more about the SCSI-protocol between RAID and
Controller (Adaptec 39160), something about LBA-64?
Maybe running -current will give me this feature?

Running ccd upon a partitioned RAID is "A Bad Idea[tm]".

Any pointers to documentation? Maybe I just need some deeper
knowledge about whats going on here.
